What about this patch for partman-crypto.templates?
@@ -48,6 +48,8 @@ _Description: Encryption method:

_Description: Encryption method for this partition:
+ Changing the encryption method will set other encryption related fields
+ to their defaults values for the new encryption method.
N.B. I just saw that if the encryption method dialog is displayed, but the
value is not actually changed, the other fields are _also_ reset to
defaults. I would say that is a bug.
